- Identify and name basic colours, such as red, blue, yellow, green, and more.
- Recognize and differentiate between common shapes, including circles, squares, triangles, rectangles, and more.
- Associate colours with specific shapes and objects, allowing them to express themselves using colour and shape vocabulary.
- Develop their listening skills by understanding simple instructions or descriptions related to colours and shapes.
- Enhance their speaking abilities by confidently using colour and shape vocabulary to describe objects and engage in conversations.
- Facilitate cognitive development by engaging in games and activities that involve sorting, matching, and categorizing colours and shapes.
